Thomas Tuchel criticised England fans for being too quiet during their 3-0 win over Wales, calling the atmosphere at Wembley “sad.”
Germany coach Thomas Tuchel took aim at England fans after his side’s 3-0 friendly win over Wales at Wembley, saying the atmosphere was “sadly quiet” despite the team’s dominant performance. Tuchel expressed disappointment that his players didn’t receive the support they deserved from the home crowd, insisting the energy inside the stadium failed to match their display.
“It’s sad,” Tuchel said. “The players gave everything, but the stadium was too silent. They deserved more from the fans.” England’s unbeaten run under the German coach continued, but the reaction from the stands appeared subdued throughout the match.
The victory, which saw goals from Jude Bellingham, Ollie Watkins, and Bukayo Saka, further cemented England’s strong form heading into the World Cup. However, Tuchel’s remarks reignited debate over Wembley’s often-calm atmosphere during friendlies.
